Taipei, as I suspect many an Asian city, is full of colorful night markets. These can be from what we would think of as a block party-sized thing, to one of a whole new neighborhood and city, built up each night for the good residents of Taipei. I got to go to two of them while in town, one of which was probably the biggest and most well know, the other a smaller, single block affair. Both were fun, had similiar items, and often held surprises.

If you don't like crowds, this is NOT the place to visit. Wall to wall people, and I was the minority for a change. Only a few people pointed, stared, or laughed though.

Most of Asia has great colorful neon signs. I can't read them, but I am always drawn to the colors and lights. Here's a few samples.
